Chapter 160

In the mansion, the snow melted.

The snow on the roof flowed down and condensed into crystal sharp icicles under the eaves.

Occasionally there will be a crisp cracking sound.

Just came out of the corridor.

Luo Qingzhou pulled Bai Ling to avoid a sudden attack by an icicle.

Then he took the opportunity to hold her soft and delicate little hand and did not let go.

Bai Ling struggled a bit at first, then pouted and said, "Uncle, let go, it's not good if people see you."

Luo Qingzhou ignored her and still pulled her forward.

In the night sky, the bright moon is bright.

The moonlight fell like water, covering the two of them with a thin layer of moon-white clothes.

The temperature at night is still very low.

The two hands held together gradually warmed up.

Walked for a while.

Bai Ling struggled slightly again and said softly: "Uncle, don't be like this. I belong to the young lady, not my uncle. The young lady has not yet agreed to be my uncle's maid."

Luo Qingzhou turned to look at her pretty, flowery face and said, "Isn't your lady mine? Even she is mine, so naturally you are mine too, right?"

Bai Ling immediately pouted and retorted: "That's not true. My uncle is the wife's wife. I can only say that my uncle belongs to the young lady, but I cannot say that the young lady belongs to my uncle."

Luo Qingzhou raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, then I will go to my father-in-law later and tell him that after thinking about it carefully, I think the second young lady is better."

The atmosphere suddenly fell into silence.

After a long time.

Bai Lingfang said softly: "Uncle, it turns out you understood everything just now."

Luo Qingzhou looked calm: "I'm not a fool."

Bai Ling looked at him with a puzzled expression and said, "Well, my uncle... the second lady is so kind to my uncle, so gentle, and she has the same interests as my uncle. Why did my uncle just... refuse me?"

Luo Qingzhou looked ahead and was silent for a moment, then suddenly stopped under a big tree. Then he turned around, hugged her gently, lowered his head and kissed her little mouth, kissing the two of them. He picked it up with the hand he was holding, put it in front of her eyes, and said, "Do you understand?"

Bai Ling was startled, looking at the hands held by the two of them, his expression was dazed for a moment, his lips moved, but he stopped talking.

"Of course, there are other reasons."

Luo Qingzhou held her hand and continued to walk forward slowly. He looked at the darkness in front of him and said, "The eldest lady is just cold-tempered and doesn't do anything bad to me. I have worshiped her and worshiped heaven and earth, and we are now husband and wife." . Even if she took the initiative, I still feel a little bit reluctant to give up. What's more, I'm not a commodity, so I won't have any objection if she divorces me directly. If you want to give me away, then..."

Having said this, he paused and then said: "Also, I think this will have a great impact on the second lady's reputation. Of course, she won't care about that, but if she becomes my wife, she will always be It will make me feel uncomfortable if you point fingers behind your back. And... the second lady is too weak, and I can’t protect her yet. I still have some things to do, and it will take some time.”

Bai Ling was silent for a moment and said, "Uncle, there is actually a way to solve the problems you mentioned."

Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "What can I do?"

Bai Ling stopped, stared at him with stern eyes and said, "When my uncle takes the high school exam next fall, he will be famous. At that time, he doesn't need to be divorced by the young lady, and can directly... marry another one. In this case, It can prevent the family scandal of my sister snatching my sister's father-in-law from happening, what do you think?"

Luo Qingzhou was stunned and immediately scolded: "Nonsense."

After saying that, he continued to pull her forward and fell silent.

Bai Ling held back a smile and glanced at him, saying, "My uncle, are you thinking, 'This girl Bai Ling is so considerate and so cute. How does she know that I think so? Can she see through my mind?'" I love this girl so much!] Uncle, isn’t that what you’re thinking?”

Luo Qingzhou: "..."

"My uncle is acquiescing if he doesn't speak."

Bai Ling approached him with a smile, and for the first time took the initiative to put her cheek on his arm, and said crisply: "Uncle, as long as you work hard, all the young ladies and maids in the Qin family will belong to me from now on. Including..."

"you?"

Luo Qingzhou turned to look at her.

Bai Ling smiled and said: "Including me, of course, and... Chan Chan."

Luo Qingzhou was slightly startled and said no more, seemingly lost in thought.

The two held hands and walked in the Qin Mansion in the dark night.

Even if any maids and servants see it, they will stay away from it.

When they were approaching Meixiang Xiaoyuan, Bai Lingfang broke away with all his strength and whispered: "Uncle, please don't show your lust to me in front of Chan Chan again."

Luo Qingzhou asked: "Why?"

Bai Ling said: "Chanchan is very lonely. I have to accompany her to be lonely. If my uncle is too close to me, she will feel that I have abandoned her, and she will feel very sad."

Luo Qingzhou thought about what he saw in the flower garden those two nights. He was silent for a moment, nodded, and agreed: "Okay."

Entered the Meixiang Garden.

The cold figure was still standing in the shadow under the eaves, not knowing whether he was in a daze or thinking about something.

After seeing them, her eyes focused.

Bai Ling whispered: "Uncle, I'll go in and call the lady. Give Chan Chan something to eat, she must be starving."

After saying that, he ran into the house.

Luo Qingzhou walked to the eaves, handed the chicken drumsticks and snacks in front of the girl, and said, "Xia Chan, what I brought for you should still be hot."

Xia Chan glanced at him coldly, then looked away and ignored him.

Luo Qingzhou couldn't help but grabbed her little hand, stuffed the thing into her hand, and ordered: "Eat."

Xia Chan narrowed her eyes and looked at him coldly again.

A chill hit Luo Qingzhou.

But he had no fear. He looked into her eyes and said, "If you have the ability, draw your sword and kill the man who once jumped into the water to save you. He stayed with you under the bridge in the wind, rain, lightning and thunder, and helped you in the flower garden on a cold night." The good uncle who planted flowers and stayed with you all night when you were sick and had a fever!"

Xia Chan: "..."

Luo Qingzhou threatened: "If you don't eat, next time you fall into the water or thunder, I won't save you. Next time you go to the flower garden to plant flowers and you get sick again, I won't accompany you." Go find Bai Ling and see if she is as gentle and considerate as your uncle."

Xia Chan turned around and snorted, but she had already grasped the thing he had just given her tightly in her hands.

"Eat it while it's hot, I'm leaving first."

After Luo Qingzhou finished explaining, he turned around and left, saying to the room: "Bailing, tell the eldest lady, I'm going back first."

The study window suddenly opened.

Bai Ling shouted from the window: "Uncle, won't you wait for us?"

Luo Qingzhou walked to the door, turned around and said, "I still want to go back to study. You and Xia Chan should accompany the eldest lady back."

After saying that, he left quickly.

Bai Ling looked at the door where his back disappeared, and was startled for a moment. Fang closed the window, turned around and said, "Miss, that's what my uncle just said. He said he couldn't let you go and didn't want to be divorced by you, even if you ignored him. He also wants to be husband and wife with you forever."

Qin Jianjia sat at the table and looked at the poems on the rice paper quietly. After a moment of silence, she said, "Don't he like Wei Mo?"

Bai Ling thought for a while and said, "My uncle didn't say anything, but judging from the situation, it seems that my uncle only likes... Chanchan."

Suddenly a cold voice came from outside the window: "Obviously, it's you."

Under the light, Bai Ling's face turned red and he muttered in a low voice, "That's not true."

Luo Qingzhou returned to the small courtyard.

After reading books about monsters in the Black Wood Forest for a while, Xiaodie came back and explained: "Sir, I went to Sister Xiaotao's place."

As she said that, she took out something from her back and said with a smile: "Look, sir, this is what Sister Xiaotao saw in the Jinzhuang Pavilion outside today. The shop owner said that these are socks passed down from the neighboring country of Hundred Flowers. All the women there like to wear this kind of clothes, and we, too, Women in Kyoto and many big cities are now wearing this kind of socks. Sister Xiaotao thought it was very strange, so she bought a few pairs and planned to try to imitate them to see if she could make a pair. I’m going to learn it too.”

Luo Qingzhou looked at the white stockings in her hand and was stunned for a moment. He quickly took them in his hand, stroked them for a while, pulled them again, and even smelled them.

Soft, silky, bouncy, and tastes...

"Sir, do you look good?"

Xiaodie said excitedly: "I'm going to make a few pairs of fabrics from other colors. I heard from Sister Xiaotao that different fabrics will have different effects. Some are more transparent, some are hazy, and some look like pants. They're just as thick. Anyway, with these socks, you don't have to wear pants anymore. I heard that many aristocratic ladies in Kyoto wear them like this now."

Luo Qingzhou was in a daze for a while, then handed her the stockings in his hand, hesitated, and said: "Xiaodie, actually, there is no need to make all these socks this length. You can make them shorter, thigh-high. Knee-length, calf-length, or ankle-length ones. Also, I think black, white, or skin-colored ones look better. There are also striped ones, which are okay. , I don’t think it’s necessary to wear embroidery or anything like that.”

Xiaodie looked at him with wide eyes as he continued to talk, and said with surprise: "Sir, why do you look so understanding? Have you ever worn one before?"

Luo Qingzhou: "..."

Xiaodie quickly added: "Oh, I forgot, this is a girl's dress. Have you seen it in the shop?"

Luo Qingzhou waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'll read a book for a while, and you go and do your work. There's no need to come over tonight, I have something else to do."

The little girl pouted her lips, said "Oh", and left a little sadly, muttering in her mouth: "I'm going to wear these socks tonight to sleep with the young master."

When she walked out of the room and was about to close the door, Luo Qingzhou suddenly said: "By the way, Xiaodie, I just thought about it. There should be nothing to do tonight. You should come over and help me warm the quilt later."

The little girl immediately beamed and said happily: "Yeah!"

Then he closed the door, returned to his room, and began to carefully observe the slippery and soft white stockings in his hands.

After a while.

She locked the door, climbed onto the bed, took off the pants under her skirt, revealing a pair of slender, snow-white girlish legs, and then began to carefully put on the stockings on her legs.

"Why do I feel so embarrassed when I wear these socks?"

The little girl looked at the white silk on her legs, her face turned red unconsciously, her heart was full of doubts and wonders, she didn't know why she felt this way.

"I wonder... Will the young master like it?"

After a while.

The little girl changed into a thin nightgown, wearing smooth white silk, and blushed as she left the room, knocking on the door and saying, "Young master, are you going to bed?"

Luo Qingzhou said on the bed, "Come in."

The little girl pushed open the door, walked in shyly, locked the door, climbed onto the bed, got into the quilt, and like a docile kitten, she stuck to his chest and whispered, "Young master, I want to..."

"I want nothing, I said next year."

"It's almost the New Year. Young master, I just I want to say that I miss you. I haven't warmed your quilt for many days. "

"Oh, then keep it warm tonight."

"Sir, I hope you keep your word. After the New Year, I will grow up. By then..."

"Snoring, snore..."

"Woo, Sir..."

"Snoring...Snoring..."

"Sir, if you pretend to sleep again, I will not be polite."

"Snoring, snore..."

"Hmph!"

The little girl snorted, suddenly shrank and got into the quilt.

Luo Qingzhou's snoring stopped abruptly.

Outside the window, the moonlight is like water.

A small garden with plum fragrance.

In the study, cigarette smoke is curling, and the candlestick is still lit.

A girl in a plain white dress, with long smooth hair and a pair of snow-white silk stockings, sat in front of the table, stepping on a soft velvet carpet, holding a pen in her hand, still writing beautiful small characters under the lamp.

Qiu'er was wearing a light yellow gauze, quietly grinding ink on the side.

"Cough... cough cough..."

The girl who was copying the story suddenly coughed.

After a short pause, she coughed again.

Then she suddenly picked up the snow-white handkerchief next to her, covered her mouth, and coughed violently for a while.

Qiu'er hurriedly walked behind her, patted her back, and said to the outside in a hurry: "Zhu'er, hurry up, the young lady is coughing up blood again, go and heat the medicine!"

Zhu'er hurriedly ran into the kitchen and put the medicine that had been boiled long ago on the stove.

Holding a cattail leaf fan, she fanned anxiously in front of the stove for a few times. Suddenly, she remembered something, then put down the cattail leaf fan and ran out of the door.

Running all the way.

The night was silent and the cold wind was biting.

When she ran to the door panting and banged on it and shouted, Xiaodie was wearing thin pajamas, with a red face and a silly smile on her face, brushing her teeth under the eaves in the small courtyard. When she heard the sound, she didn't bother to go back to the house to put on clothes, and immediately ran to open the door.

Zhu'er said anxiously: "Xiaodie, hurry up, let the son-in-law go over, my lady is coughing up blood again."

Xiaodie hurried back to the house when she heard it.

Hearing the news, Luo Qingzhou quickly got up from the bed, put on his clothes, thought about it, and took the storage bag.

When he and Zhu'er hurriedly arrived, the weak girl was still sitting stubbornly at the table, silently transcribing the story he brought.

Qiu'er stood aside, grinding ink with red eyes.

Luo Qingzhou took off his shoes and entered the room.

The girl turned her head and looked at him, a trace of apology appeared on her beautiful and pale face, and she said softly: "Brother-in-law, I'm sorry... Wei Mo is useless, and I disturbed you again." Qiu'er quickly retreated and closed the door. Luo Qingzhou walked closer, took out a porcelain bottle from the storage bag, held her fair and weak little hand, and dripped a drop of black liquid on it. Then, he took out another porcelain bottle and dripped a drop of dark blue liquid on it. The two drops of liquid quickly blended into her snow-white skin and disappeared. Luo Qingzhou put away the porcelain bottle, let go of her little hand, looked at the beautiful little words she copied, and said, "It's not necessary to be so hard."

The girl also looked at the little words and said softly, "It's not hard at all. Only by writing poems and stories about my brother-in-law can Wei Mo feel better physically and mentally."

Luo Qingzhou thought about what happened tonight, looked at her pale little face with long eyelashes drooping, and fell silent.
